Hiya all....haven't been around for a while....the amount of work, and cold weather has made me rather lethargic....Haven't done much riding or surfing for quite a while, so Sunday I decided the hell with it.....I need to get OUT. Intended to make an early start, but thick fog made me crawl back under the duvet.....at 9am I decided to finally get up, and at 10 tanked up, and headed along the N7, where I once again hit thick fog, and almost turned around, but decided to hang in there.....Glad I did

Fog behind me

Ahead the weather looked stunning, and so did the green fields...
I think most of the Capies went to look for snow, as the roads were empty.....I much prefer the fair weather thanks

Aah Spring....brings a smile to my face, and it's going to be a bumper flower show this year....this is only the beginning

Stopped in Piketburg for a lousy coffee, where a chap eating bread asked if I could please buy him a pint of milk....it certainly made a change from being asked for money, so I bought him some milk. :D

Finally turned off the N7 ( was quite enjoying it) and headed in the direction of the Cederburg and crossed the Oliphants river....perfect spot to stretch the legs

And on towards....

Didn't venture too far, as I was riding alone, and felt that if anything goes wrong, it wouldn't be the warmest place to overnight

I wasn't the only one having a good time

Towards the bottom, took another road that would've taken me to Citrusdal, but being me, I didn't look at the map to see where I was going, and once again turned around....

From there, back home......I had a really enjoyable ride, and it felt so good to get some kms under me again....next time, I won't leave it so long....
